North Cove maps to a single census tract in Salt Lake City, UT and houses 1,418 people. It carries an Eviction Risk Score of 3/10, in the Lower tier. The clearest offset is economic stress, at 1/10.
21% of renters here are cost-burdened at the 30% threshold, under the Salt Lake City rate of 30.4%. Food insecurity affects 5.9% of adults, 11.9 points below the national rate. The filing record is not thin: 29 evictions logged in this tract.
On the softer side is rent-regulation exposure, at 3/10. Filing activity peaked in 2012 at 3.1% of renter households.
5.3% of adults carry no health insurance against 11.3% nationally, a common route into sudden unpayable debt. The most recent observed rate, 1.0% in 2016, is well off that peak. That places it #26 of 26 neighborhoods in Salt Lake City.
The closest comparables inside the same city are Westpointe and Foothill / Sunnyside. Against average income of $175,114, annual rent is only 10%, a wide affordability cushion.
Poverty sits at 4%, low enough that arrears here usually reflect a specific shock rather than a structural income gap. Average gross rent runs $1,459, close to the Salt Lake City average.
Because the boundary contains one tract, 3/10 is simultaneously the area figure and the address-level figure. Scores move when the ACS release, the court-record feed, or the statute ledger behind them moves.
